Log into a TeamForgeLab Management system

You can log into any machine that is assigned to a project you are a member of and that you have the requisite permissions for.

For security reasons, all TeamForgeLab Management systems are on a private network, inaccessible from anywhere outside of CollabNet. To access these systems, you must tunnel through the TeamForgeLab Management Manager.

If you need access to a system that belongs to a project you are not a member of, you have two options:

Ask to join the project, or to get permission within that project to access TeamForgeLab Management hosts.

Ask the owner of the system, or a project/domain administrator, to create an account for you on the machine.

Note: This may violate your organization's security policy, so check with your site administrator before creating any accounts. If the account is temporary, you will be responsible for removing it.

Log into a UNIX system
To log in to UNIX systems, such as Linux and Solaris machines, you must use port forwarding over SSH.

Log into a Windows system
To log into a Windows system in TeamForgeLab Management, you must use SSH with the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), which renders a full Windows graphical environment on your desktop.
